Hudson put on another performance, this one a bit more upbeat than February’s. Hudson dressed in head-to-toe eighties garb and took to the aisles to perform “I’m Every Woman,” “How Will I Know” and “I Wanna Dance WIth Somebody.”

The evening, hosted by LL Cool J, was an emotional one, according to Yahoo! Music. Berry had a wobbly chin while opening the tribute, and the camera cut to an emotional Brown who kept fanning herself to fight back tears while CeCe Winans performed.

A variety of interviews and performances by Houston were shown on the big screen, including her moving rendition of “The Star Spangled Banner” at Super Bowl XXV.
